    No, I’m not. The unregulated Free speech crowd abused that privilege in order to usher in fascist censorship. The liberals fell for the trap. I’ve taken a lot of crap on this platform from liberals who said that we need to protect all free speech or else the fascists will censor them if they ever gain. power, which is absolutely the most idiotic and tone deaf statement I’ve ever heard.

        There is SO much misunderstanding about China that it’s mind-boggling. Their people own the means of production. Profits are used to meet the needs of the people, keeping wealth from being hoarded by individuals and thus slowing the flow of money. Their governmental structure is FAR more representative of the people than the US’s is. Their expansion of high speed rail has been phenomenal. “All the same exploitation” with none of the problems caused by late stage capitalism. Maybe you should try talking to people who live and work there.
